Mission
The Center is dedicated to preventing and eliminating healthcare disparities for diverse and vulnerable populations by ensuring their access to culturally and linguistically competent healthcare.
The Center uses a two-fold approach to achieve its mission: (1) developing culturally competent healthcare practitioners and (2) facilitating delivery of cultural and linguistically appropriate healthcare.
Through a comprehensive, multifaceted approach, the center supports the development of UMDNJ-School of Nursing as the state’s premier institution for culturally competent education, practice, research and consultation. The Center also seeks to contribute to the development of health policy that supports cultural competence in educational and clinical settings.
The Center’s mission is supported by strategies and goals in five major areas:
